Official : the Pandemoniak reforms

Pandemoniak · October 13, 2002, 09:53

This is the reform I propose : Worker placements and terraforming will be planned in the same poll, and tiles would be terraformed and worked by descending numbers of votes. This polling could depend on elected governors, on the DoTC or on the DoEI.

Quote:

Director of Energy and Industry:
Has the right of:
*Starting polls to ask the people what there wishes are in his area
*Ordering the commissioner to rushbuild, use money in trades, [DELETE]change worker placements, [/DELETE]and move crawlers
*Advising any other part of the government
*Requesting crawlers and buildings with the Director of buildings productions.
*Polling Planetary Council decision on salvaging reactor core
*Polling Planetary Council decisions on Global Trade Pacts

Has the duties of:
*Starting polls to ask the people what there wishes are in his area
*Listing to the will of the people in his area
*Giving his opinion to the director of foreign affairs about any talks, which effect his area, with other factions
*Serving his faction the best he can

This Director is responsible of the treasury expenditures, [DELETE]worker placements[/DELETE], and crawlers.

Director of Terraforming and Colonisation:
Has the right of:
*Starting polls to ask the people what there wishes are in his area
*Ordering the commissioner to move [DELETE]terraformers and [/DELETE] colony pods
*Ordering the commissioner to design new TC units, disband old TC units and upgrade current TC units
*Advising any other part of the government
*Requesting terraformers, colony pods, and buildings with the Director of buildings productions.
*Polling Planetary Council decisions on raising and lowering sea levels

Has the duties of:
*Starting polls to ask the people what there wishes are in his area
*Listing to the will of the people in his area
*Serving his faction the best he can

Director of Expansion and Terraforming commands all colony pods and terraformers [EDIT]not controlled by governors[/EDIT]

ADD ON TO THE CONSTITUTION :
Governors are elected for one term and has the duty to poll for terraforming and worker placement at least twice a term, and concerning only one base. Terraforming and worker placements concerning bases without a governor would be depending on DoTC and DoEI.

This is the reform that I suggest, but since there has been many discussions, I propose other options : merge terraforming and worker placement in the DoTC, merge terraforming and worker placements in the DoEI. Last but not least, I propose an option which supports the merging, but on another way.

Option : Merge Terraforming and Worker placement under something else is a write-in

DeathByTheSword · October 13, 2002, 12:06

write-in regional governers

Maniac · October 13, 2002, 12:55

A big no-no from me.

Darkness' Edge · October 13, 2002, 17:33

A big no-no from me too.

I agree to regional governors, in principle, at a later date, but the present system is working fine for now.

Vote no! Make this the first failed amendment.

DeathByTheSword · October 14, 2002, 06:17

problem this needs a 2/3 yes vote but where do we look to for that 66% vote.....?

Pandemoniak · October 14, 2002, 08:34

Well, the first four are "Yes", of different kinds. The fiffth is "No". The sixth is ABSTAIN. So, if the first fourth makes 66% or more, the reform passes.

Darkness' Edge · October 14, 2002, 09:06

Oh no you don't.

For a reform to pass, an option must have over 66% of the vote. Three amendments so far have already done this. None of the three options this time came close.

My suggestion: discuss the issue more, come back with one single option, and put it to the people again.

Otherwise you'll have a verdict that is at best, constitutionally dubious, and may well be thrown out by the court.

Pandemoniak · October 14, 2002, 09:19

Well, if more than 66% citizens want to merge Terraforming and Worker Placement, then it has to be merged. The way it is merged is just another question, dealt by another poll. This one is consultative for the different way to organize this merging.

Maniac · October 14, 2002, 15:43

Welcome back Archaic!

Darkness' Edge · October 15, 2002, 05:01

Pande, you say this poll is only consultative. Then why label it as official?

And why have you since been quoted...

This is unconstitutional. You can't have an unofficial poll, where is no one specific amendment there, just a general idea, and then declare that it must be abided by.

Pandemoniak · October 15, 2002, 06:06

Ok lets put it clearly in two new polls.
